The Winning of Barbara Worth

An engineer (Ronald Colman) gone west to help his developer dad with the irrigation of a Nevada desert town catches the eye of a local rancher's daughter (Vilma Banky), much to the resentment of her jealous foreman (Gary Cooper, in his first credited role). Beyond the tensions of their rivalry, local politics halt the project, with the unreinforced dam ready to give way. With Charles Willis Lane, Clyde Cook; directed by Henry King. 89 min.
